Overton
Tracking research impact on policy, guidelines, regulatory frameworks and think tanks
The University has a subscription to , the world鈥檚 largest searchable database of policy-type documents.
The platform parses each document - finding references, people, and key concepts - and then links them to academic research, as well as to relevant news stories, think tank outputs and other policies. The platform helps us discover where 海角社区 research may be influencing or changing practice in the real world.
Access to this database supports us in exploring and tracking the impact of 海角社区 research, and will be of particular use as we work towards compiling Impact Case Studies for REF2029.
Walk-through Training Session
To help us take full advantage of the platform, the team from Overton will be hosting a 鈥�walk through鈥� session online:
